The Merritt Centennials of the BC Hockey League are pleased to announce the signing of forward Jakob Reichert (93) for the 2010-11 season.
?We're really excited to have Jakob join our club,? said Cents Head Coach/GM Luke Pierce. ?He's a young player who has a lot of potential, and we feel that he can make a big impact at the junior 'A' level. I'm confident that Jakob will not only fit in well with what we're building towards on the ice, but also in the Nicola Valley community.?
